  • Changing trem's stud inserts? Help!

    How can I change them?
    How can I get the old ones out?
    How should I attach the new ones? What glue should I use?

    Shold I even do it? I'm changing the JT580 for OFR.

    Don't Glue them!

    The main reason for doing it is that OFR stud and bushings should have finer threads and shouldn't wobble as much as the cheap import stuff (import if you live in Germany [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])

    I'll let someone else describe in detail how to pull and push them in, but I think it's been discussed here quite a few times recently.

      I still would like to know about how to attach the new ones, Newc's way is pretty good but is there more good ways?

        but those new ones don't go all the way to the end that easily....I have to try and try...
